ON THE RISE
Hip-hop artist, Lyrical Chris, delivers his latest single, “Level 5,” an ode to his hip-hop genre of “5D rap.” The emerging artist invites listeners to his musical universe, where high vibrational, non-religious rap transcends to a whole new level.
Born and raised in Tifton, Georgia, Lyrical Chris knew he wanted to start rapping from early childhood. “My big brother used to rap, and I tried to emulate him,” shares the artist. “As I grew older, I wanted to rap all the time. At school, I had freestyle battles with my friends. At home, I listened to instrumentals and figured out how to be the best rapper I wanted to be. Those periods helped me develop into who I am as Lyrical Chris.”
When he first got started, Lyrical Chris went by “Lil Crazy.” He underwent a transformation in both sound and name as he started listening to lyrical rappers like Lupe Fiasco and Kendrick Lamar. “It made me want to change my name, because I was more lyrical sided than generic, basic rap,” explains Chris.
In 2021, Lyrical Chris debuted his first single. “Once I heard that beat, I started recording,” he shares of the experience. From there, his music took off. In 2024, he released his debut album, Prewrite. Now, in 2025, he’s working on the next project, Rough Draft, and releasing his latest single, “Level 5,” along with a music video.
Since its release, “Level 5” has garnered positive feedback by excited listeners. “People are loving it,” tells Lyrical Chris. “They really get an understanding of what I mean by Level 5. It’s about putting you in a fifth dimensional consciousness. Good times and good vibes. As you play it over and over, it brings great things to you in life.”
Demonstrating an evolution from his original sound, “Level 5” introduces a whole new sound to the industry. “People are saying it’s different than what they hear in mainstream rap right now,” Lyrical Chris explains. “I want people to get that I’m creating a new genre. I’m meeting you on Level 5, not the traditional Level 3 of 3D. It’s a new level of rap I’m bringing myself and other rappers to. It’s heaven on earth.”
Lyrical Chris’s musical movement of “5D rap” follows ten rules, which are described on his website, in each song. To create his original sound, Lyrical Chris explores instrumentals until he finds one that speaks to him. “As soon as I heard the one for Level 5, I created the hook. Everything else went along with it. I rapped things in my head as I heard the beat—the subject matter, how I wanted the lyrics to form, the chorus, the verses. Then I played around with the instrumentals for the bridge and outro.” Instead of working with a producer, Lyrical Chris enjoys using instrumentals that have already been produced. “It’s better when they have material out and I can look at it like a buffet—they put food out, and I try and see if I like it, then I get more of it.”
In addition to being a monumental rapper, Lyrical Chris is a plant-based eater. “I’ve been vegan for eight years. Being on that diet has helped me be a better artist. I’ve written better songs and have a clearer mind on how I want to create. There aren’t a million things in my head interfering with what I want to put out. It lets me zero in on what I’m trying to do and want to do, my vision as a rapper.”

NETHERLANDS — August 26, 2026 — Brook Lynn is stepping into a new chapter with “Love Your Enemy,” an atmospheric alternative pop song that turns an intensely personal battle with anxiety into a message of self-acceptance. Written after her America’s Got Talent auditions, the song captures the internal conflict of facing the person who can be hardest to silence: yourself.
Built around cinematic production and emotionally restrained vocals, “Love Your Enemy” explores the disconnect between appearing fine in public and confronting difficult thoughts in private. The song’s central message is reflected in its chorus, where Brook Lynn sings about being “my own worst company” before arriving at its most hopeful realization: “They say, ‘Love your enemy,’ / So I’m learning how to love me.”
For Brook Lynn, that “enemy” is anxiety. Rather than presenting it as something that simply disappears, the song examines what it means to live with those thoughts while refusing to let them dictate what comes next.
“I always want to give a hopeful message in every song,” Brook Lynn explains. “I always first want to explain what is happening in your head and what you feel, and then, at the end, give a message that you can get out of this, and that anxiety doesn’t have to hold you back from all the things you want to achieve in your life.”
That message became especially significant when Brook Lynn made the decision to perform “Love Your Enemy” on America’s Got Talent. Known by many viewers for her stripped-back cover performances, she recognized that performing an original song on one of television’s biggest stages carried a different kind of risk. But she also knew she could not continue forward without showing audiences the artist behind the covers.
“I just thought it was really important to also show the world that I’m not just a cover singer,” she says. “I do want people to know that I write songs and I want to be an artist and put that out there.”
Brook Lynn performed “Love Your Enemy” during the America’s Got Talent quarterfinals, bringing the song’s story of anxiety and self-doubt directly to a massive live audience. Her journey on the show ended there, but the response made one thing clear: listeners wanted to hear more. Fans connected not only with her voice, but with the honesty behind the performance and the willingness to speak openly about emotions many people struggle to acknowledge themselves.
“I do want to be that person with my music as well for other people,” Brook Lynn says, describing her desire to write about real experiences and feelings. “I always want to be really real with everyone, like talk about deeper stuff, not surface level.”
“Love Your Enemy” arrives as Brook Lynn looks ahead to Tales From The Woods, an upcoming EP intended to introduce listeners to a broader picture of who she is as an artist. With only two original songs currently released, she says she is excited to share more music and continue developing the sound and emotional world introduced through “Love Your Enemy.”
The song is not a conclusion to Brook Lynn’s story. It is the beginning of a more open one—one where anxiety can be acknowledged without being allowed to take control, and where the feelings people are often afraid to say out loud can finally have a voice.
Listen to “Love Your Enemy,” which received promotional support from Starlight PR.
Brook Lynn creates music that feels intimate yet powerful, cinematic yet emotionally exposed. Blending atmospheric alternative pop with minimalist visual storytelling, her work explores vulnerability, isolation, emotional tension and human connection through a distinctly modern lens.
Raised in Wilp, a small town in the Netherlands, Brook Lynn grew up surrounded by silence, nature and isolation. Music became a private emotional outlet and a way to process feelings that were difficult to explain out loud. What began through stripped-back online performances evolved into a growing global audience drawn to her honesty and emotional depth.
For Brook Lynn, music is never just about being heard. It is about being understood.
